Ben Rodgers explained his work as a more senior member of chambers, and how his career has developed to date.

All of the speakers also answered questions submitted by the attendees and discussed the role of the clerks and practice management. Alongside the on-screen speakers, written questions were answered simultaneously by other members of chambers and pupils.
